In every breath
In every sigh
Days are pushing
Ever by
Slow and steady
Wins the race
Can't bear to travel
Such a pace
Temptations come
Temptations go
I love it when
You love me so
We grow stronger
As we pray
We love our Father
More every day
In His name may
We never fail
May our love
Never set sail
So proud to love you
So proud to be
The one you love
For you love me

Kiss me one last time as if you need me to breathe

I smile, because I've thought the same thing a million times before

Hold me ever closer, I need you to succeed

I smile, because I've known the same a million days before

Laugh as if you won't again, because you'll never know the truth

I smile, because I know I will, a million times again

I know I'll spend my life in joy, spending it with you

I smile because I know it's true, God speaks to me again

I can't wait to hear her cry Daddy Daddy -
Come and play with me!
I can't wait to shout back Honey Honey -
He's on his way, he's on his way!

Imagine little kisses
Increasing in size
Imagine trees with Christmas lights
Swimming through blue eyes
Imagine happy smiles
Heavy breathing
New Year's Eve
Imagine everything you know you'll
Never have to leave
Imagine all your loved ones
Laughing with you on the couch
Imagine kissing til your lips are stung
A happy kind of ouch
Imagine love that never fades
Imagine winter shivering
Imagine me before you sleep
With my broken bleeding smiling lips
Quivering

Hypnotized
Silver coins of pools of water
Strung in jewels
Pointing, edged
Round and swallowing
Glittering and dancing as they close in on me

Soft
Long and swirling
Flaring like a prized horse
Rushing into my neck
To inhale me once more

Delicious
A million lines
A million times
Roses and bath water and lemonade
Sugar and cake and pink, so pink
Linked between by lips like puzzle pieces
I beg you to kiss me again

Strong
Intoxicating strength and golden shimmering
Long tongues of flame, never around me enough
Bending, holding
Callused laughing

Perfect
Tall and broad
Dark and magnetic as night
Oh magnetic
Draw me in
Warmth to strength to
Fingers tracing down you like waterfalls
Body that will one day be mine
Perfect

I love how I can see things in your eyes
There's the obvious blues
The silvers
All churned together like ethereal ice cream
So heart wrenchingly bright
Vacuums of cool space that **** the air from my lungs
Shimmering like the Pacific
But there's other things too
When we stand underneath the tree outside my window
Strung with golden Christmas lights
Drops of buttery sunlight on this cold, white marble
They pool in your eyes
Gold and silver coins at the bottom of a fountain
Not a ***** tile fixture in the mall food court
But the geometric bursting pools of the Louvre in Paris
Blue and slick and fresh
I can see feelings
When I stroke your face with my fingertips
I see smiles in your eyes
They match the pink smile of your lips
But I like all three best together
The TriForce of cuteness
I can see love in your eyes
They don't need to be open
I kiss your forehead and feel the furrows of your shutting lids meet my lips
I pull away and whisper I love yous until
You're squinting so hard I worry
But I run my thumb along your wrinkles
And you soften like clay
And your eyes open up
And they **** the air from my lungs
And you kiss it back into me

It's million little things
A million little kisses
A million little wishes
A million little smiles
A million little whiles
A million little music notes
A million little laughs
A million little things that make me happy
But only one to make me sad

I promise that everything is okay.
I promise that everything is going stay okay.
I promise that I love you.
I promise that I will continue to love you.
I promise that you're not a bad boyfriend.
I promise that you never have been and I doubt you ever could be.
I promise that you're not fat.
I promise that I will love you even if you ever get fat.
I promise that the world isn't falling apart.
I promise that it won't, as long we keep praying.
I promise that you're worth all our messes.
I promise that you'll always be worth all our messes.

I love you.
Happy Birthday to me.

I hope that you will hold my fingers to your lips every single time there is a scary part in a movie.
I hope that I'll be able to feel your hot breath on my hand.
I hope that I can look over and see your blue eyes widened to dinner plates that you can't tear away from the screen.
I hope that I'll always be able to look at you and write a poem in my head - because you are the best poetry I've ever written.

Rainbows slap the table like rain
Chocolate and navy snakes and streams down my neck
Laughter echoes - dripping in drops down the rocks
Glancing at me
Again and again
Eyes flash like wishing wells
Wet smiles sliding over your teeth
Coral pink lips - dripping teeth in white
Wink after wink
Clouds passing over the water
Drowning
I'm drowning
And I've never wanted to drown so much before
